[Job-Discussions] amazon picker

[Richard Davis]

Okay Brian,
One of the unfortunate problems of our times is the tendency of people to
try to pass off what they imagine as actual knowledge. From what you have
written so far, I think you do not have any actual knowledge about work at
Amazon. Therefore, please let people explore the issue for themselves.
Thanks,
Dick Davis
